Objective To investigate the dynamic changes in expression of cell markers desmin, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and (-smooth muscle actin (?-SMA) in primary cultures of human and rat pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs). Methods PSCs were isolated from human as well as rat pancreas using Nycodenz discontinuous density gradient centrifugation following digestion with combination of collagenase IV, Pronase E and DNase I, and purified by centrifugal elution techniques. Freshly isolated cells were examined by laser scanning confocal microscopy for vitamin A autofluorescence, by immunostaining for desmin, GFAP, and ?-SMA. Expression of ?-SMA was as well measured by Western analysis. Procollagen ?1(Ⅰ) mRNA expression was analyzed by Northern analysis. Results The purity of rat PSCs obtained by centrifugal elution were above 95%. More than 85% of either freshly-isolated human or rat PSCs displayed positive vitamin A autofluorescence. Rat PSCs stained positively for desmin and GFAP and negatively for ?-SMA, whereas human PSCs were negative for either desmin, GFAP or ?-SMA. During the process of primary culture, rat PSCs were positive for ?-SMA at 3d and completely transformed from quiescent state to myofibroblast-like phenotypes at 7d, which negatively or scarcely expressed desmin and GFAP, but fully expressed the ?-SMA protein and procollagen ?1(Ⅰ) mRNA, similarly to the settings of human PSCs. Conclusions Human and rat PSCs could be successively isolated in above 95% purity by combining gradient centrifugation with following centrifugal elution techniques. The results show some species differences in desmin and GFAP expression between freshly-isolated human and rat PSCs. Both of which, however, acquire a myofibroblast-like phenotype largely expressing ?-SMA protein and procollagen ?1(Ⅰ) gene in culture.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the influence of the implementation of essential drug policy ( EDP) on prescrip-tion use rate of antibiotics in primary hospitals. Methods:Based on CNKI, Wanfang and VIP of China journal databases, all litera-tures were adopted including the data of the prescription use rate of antibiotics in primary hospitals. RevMan5. 3 and Stata 12. 0 soft-ware were used to conduct the Meta analysis. Results:Totally 43 literatures were included in the study according to the evaluation se-lection criteria. After the implementation of EDP, the prescription use rate of antibiotics in primary hospitals was decreased, and com-pared with that before the implementation of EDP, the risk difference value was significant [RD= -0. 03,95%CI( -0. 04,-0. 03), P<0. 000 01], while the use rate was still high (46. 16%). The result of Egger’s test indicated the publication bias of the 43 litera-tures was not significant (P=0. 571). However, there was high heterogeneity(I2 =94%,P<0. 000 01)among the different studies. Based on the classification of hospital type and different areas, the results of sub-group analysis showed the differences of study methods in the literatures and regional implementation measures of EDP contributed to the high heterogeneity among the different studies. Con-clusion:In order to reduce the heterogeneity of studies, a unified evaluation criteria for the research quality of the cross-section survey should be established. And special policies related to EDP should be taken to effectively decrease the use rate of antibiotics in primary hospitals.

Objective: To investigate the effect of puncture-related pain on the quality of life in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis through internal arteriovenous if stula. Methods: A total of 180 hemodialysis patients with the arteriovenous ifstula were surveyed by the kidney disease quality of life short form(KDQOL-SF1.3), demographic data questionnaire, visual analogue scale and pain self-effcacy questionnaire. Results: The median score of puncture-related pain was 5 and the score of pain self-efficacy was (31.42±14.59). The quality of life in the patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis is poor. KDQOL-SF1.3 was (69.45±24.19), SF-36 was (49.82±19.17) and ESRD-targeted was (55.46±18.37). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the quality of life was positively correlated with the patient gender (β=0.152,P<0.05, OR=1.638, 95% CI 1.241–1.954), working position (β=0.307,P<0.05, OR=2.069, 95% CI 1.206–-3.148), using time of arteriovenous ifstula (β=?0.815, P<0.05, OR=0.223, 95% CI 0.095–0.741), the score of pain (β=-0.017,P<0.05, OR=1.004, 95% CI 0.886–1.431) and pain self-effcacy (β=-0.409,P<0.05, OR=0.803, 95% CI 0.710–0.984). hTere existed negative correlation between the quality of life score and the puncture-related pain score in these patients (r=-0.472,-0.465,-0.381,P<0.01), positive correlation between the quality of life score and the score of pain self-efficacy (r=0.647, 0.203, 0.518,P<0.05), and negative correlation between the puncture-related pain score and the score of pain self-effcacy(r=-0.745,P<0.01). Conclusion: Puncture-related pain is a crucial inlfuential factor on the quality of life in the patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis through internal arteriovenous ifstula.

BACKGROUND:Thoracolumbar fracture often accompanies with the injury of adjacent intervertebral disc. Traditional posterior short-segment fixation does not deal with the injured intervertebral disc, which may be the main reason for kyphosis in patients after surgery.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of injured intervertebral disc on kyphosis angle in patients with single vertebral thoracolumbar fracture after treated with posterior short-segment fixation alone.
METHODS:From January 2009 to June 2014, 40 cases of thoracolumbar fractures were treated in Jinan Central Hospital. They were folowed-up at preoperation, 2 and 12 months after operation and 6 months after internal fixation removal. Data were obtained from X-ray and MRI scanning. According to the preoperative MRI images, cases were assigned to observation group (17 cases) and control group (23 cases) according to injury and non-injury intervertebral disc. Data of vertebral wedge angle, sagittal plane kyphosis, proximal intervertebral disc angle, sagittal index and degeneration classification of proximal intervertebral disc angle from two different groups were analyzed at each folow-up time point (18-30 months, averagely 23.6 months).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Imaging parameters: sagittal plane kyphosis was significantly severer at 6 months than that at 2 months in both groups (P < 0.05). Sagittal plane kyphosis, proximal intervertebral disc angle and sagittal index were greater in the observation group than in the control group at 12 months after surgery and 6 months after fixator removal (P < 0.05). (2) Degeneration classification of proximal intervertebral disc angle: Pearce degeneration grade of proximal intervertebral disc was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group at 2 months after surgery and 6 months after internal fixation removal (P < 0.05). (3) Results suggested that kyphosis may appear in the patients with thoracolumbar fracture after a posterior short-segment fixation alone, and the injured disc may lead to more severe kyphosis.
